Online part store such as 
 
digikey.com and mouser.com
 
I used both of them.

Just got my CAVALLI LC and did a brief comparison with H10 (burson V5 embedded).
my source is Calyx 192 DAC, balanced signals to LC unbalanced to H10, using ETHER as primary headphone.
and here’s the initial impression: H10 has better extension on both ends, bigger sound stage, more air, tighter bass, LC is smoother, now I understand why they are named Liquid.
if you want to relax and enjoy the music for long period, LC is the way to go, but if you really want to push the Ortho cans to their limits, H10 maybe the better choice IMHO.

Thats good to hear! I was counting my pennies getting ready to possibly pick up a LC from the classifieds.

Thanks a lot for sharing your impressions with us.

 Interesting!
 
Is your new Cavalli properly burnt in? Are you really comparing 'like with like'?
It may make no difference, but if the LC has the same kind of burn-in changes as some have found with the H10........

You're going to need a few more hours on that LC.
 
 
My impressions of the two.
 
LC with about 150 hrs.  H10 with full Burson gen 4 somewhere around 1000 hrs.
 
CD rip ALAC 16/44.1 music.  Ibasso DX80 coax to Matrix mini-i,  balanced and SE to LC and H10.  Ether C
 
Sound stage, headroom, depth, height, width about the same.  LC is slightly upper mid forward while H10 is slightly upper bass forward.  This makes the LC sound a little more airy and fun but thinner with vocals and strings.  The warmer H10 has a richer vocal and string tone.  Both male and female voices sound fuller.  Vocal vibrato and string instrument vibrations and resonance is easily heard on the H10 but less noticeable on the LC.  Both are equally smooth and without grain.
I only had the LC for a week and could have kept it much longer but did not want to.  I love the sound of the LC but with the H10 there to A-B I like the sound of the H10 more.  The richer vocals and engaging strings to my ears is more pleasing than the flatter sounding LC.  That warmer H10 also has better bass slam and maybe tighter but that may be because of its warmer tone.  Like the LC sounding like it has more air because it has a brighter tone.  The Burson gen 4 and V5 might be two animals so that may affect the sound, then there's my weird ears so grain of salt and all that.

Is your H10 balanced?!?!?

Would you please share some details about that extra phone jack on your H10? Who put it in? How? .....

 

[canthearyou]

I know it has a balanced input. Does it keep it balanced all the way up to the output?? It must!

 

[sunneebear]

Not balanced. I just stuck a XLR4 jack on so I can use different cables.

Oh.

Probably not. The dual opamps in the back is suppose the sum the balanced signal before it gets to the amp stage.

I don't think so, just got it less than 12 hours.

 
impression might change after few days of burnt-in.

the LC will have little to no burn-in in my experience.  I found the LC to be superior to the H10 in almost every aspect that the H10 has moved along to a new owner.  I only went as far as 897/823 opamp combo so cannot comment on how a full boat Burson setup would compare to the LC.  I found a bigger soundstage and an allover SQ improvement especially on the bottom end.  The LC is just more dynamic for me than the H10!  YMMV!
